Retire in Jamaica

"Life for a retiree in Jamaica or its surroundings is relaxed and fulfilling. There is an active expat community, offering ample opportunity to make friends and start new hobbies. There are lots of cultural attractions, including colorful street markets and historic churches, while stunning natural scenery provides the perfect backdrop for outdoor activities like hiking and snorkeling. For entertainment, there is ample nightlife, from hotel bars and lobby lounges to vibrant music spots and local taverns. Jamaica and its surroundings offer a delightful retirement experience, with plenty of activities to keep the dynamic and curious retiree engaged," said a retiree who moved to Jamaica.

"If you're a culture vulture, Jamaica offers so much to see and do...no, it's not London, but you can take in local theatre (sometimes from the UK, USA etc), museums, opera and classical concerts, art galleries and shows...if you're a foodie, Jamaican food is superb, but you will also find everything from sushi to Lebanese cuisine, wine bars, night clubs...there really is something for everyone to meet all budgets...and on weekends, the beaches and mountains beckon," said one retiree in Kingston.
